Chapter 869

Serenity said with a smile, “Of course, we’ll be open for business.”

“They said you’ll sell the business and take it easy with life when we found out you were the missus of the York family. They also said they are willing to buy your business no matter the cost because of the good energy in your shop.”

Mr. Charles added amid chuckles, “The place only has good energy because you’re there.”

“I heard that the wives of wealthy families can’t work. Does Mr. York allow you to work?”

Mr. Charles was in the mood for some gossip.
